Can't really say right now, for Pokemon Ultra Sun and Moon it opened way closer to release at only 56 days, while Pokemon Let's Go is at 121 days from release. Until dates the line up it's got plenty of time to build up points.

Idk about the others though, but apart from ORAS they're entirely new generation mainline entry's that would be better compared to the 2019 games anyways.

That really puts into perspective the gulf between generational Pokémon games and non-generational Pokémon games.  For my part, I expect Let's Go to fall into the latter category sales wise since...that's what it is.

Its interesting that SuMo is the only 3DS title that didnt open up with ~60 days to go making it the only one that opened up in a similar time trame as Lets Go.

Almost 100 points for Smash. Nice!



Interesting. So as I thought, Pokemon isn't being treated like a mainline game. The question now is, will it be treated like a remake (which it kind of is) and get 10-13 million, a sequel (which it also kind of is, to my understanding) and get 8+, like a third version and get 6-8 million, or like a spin-off and get less than 6? Before this I could have seen any of these outcomes, or even getting Pokemon Yellow like sales with 15 million since it's got mascot followers. But now it's looking like it'll get treated like a spinoff, which it is anyway, but it was enough like the main games I thought it could do better. Of course, we haven't seen all the SKUs still and this is only Japan, so maybe as we get more information things will look better, but for now it stands no chance against Smash sales wise.



Also I just noticed the COMG archive link in the FAQ post 404s.



Good day for winning 11. Is this releasing in Japan on xbox, switch or ps3?
